Can we keep the file in github and remove it from the source distribution? The file is provided as convenience for contributors to adhere to the Apex coding style. We may create jar out of the .xml file, but this will require running the build prior to creating an IDE project and importing codestyle definition.

Do we need to have license embedded into the .xml file that is currently inside the jar? The file is generated by IDE.

Alan, Taylor,

Thanks for the reasoning behind it and the suggestions. We will immediately look into including the actual text files without packaging them into a binary file.

Thanks

    way you'll get this through the IPMC with a jar in the source
    release.  Apache is very insistent that official releases be
    source only.  This is for its legal protection.  You can do a
    binary "release" which is just making convenience artifacts
    available on the website, that includes this jar if you want, or
    you can include the source for the jar (assuming it's not binary)
    and put in rules in the pom to jar it up at build time.

    Hi Alan,

    The jar only contains code styles for intellij idea ide,
    compatible with the coding guidelines for the project and only
    contains only xml configuration files. I am running the tests to
    see if I can replicate the error you are seeing.

    Thanks
